Javier Palomarez, USHBC President, Hosts Q&A with Senators Ruben Gallego & Bernie Moreno on Small Business Priorities
Florida International University’s Washington, D.C. campus on Thursday, September 4, 2025,
with Senator Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) and Senator Bernie Moreno (R-OH), underscoring
bipartisan solutions to challenges facing America’s small business community and the nation as
a whole.
Javier Palomarez, USHBC President and CEO, issued the following statement:
“Today’s discussion was a powerful reminder that America’s greatest strengths lie in diversity of
thought and dialogue. Senators Ruben Gallego and Bernie Moreno exemplify the kind of
courage and pragmatism that America needs right now. Both men, despite coming from different
backgrounds and political parties, demonstrated that civil discourse is essential to the prosperity
of American businesses, workers, and families. I commend the senators for their participation,
their commitment to representing their constituents, and for proving to the American people that
common sense and collaboration still exist in Washington.”
The Q&A covered pressing economic policy issues, including tariffs and international trade, the
affordability crisis facing American families, the future of digital assets and cryptocurrency, the
importance of protecting duty drawback for manufacturers, and the need to balance secure
borders with an immigrant workforce that powers critical sectors of the economy. The senators
also addressed bipartisan opportunities to expand access to healthcare, advance strategic
energy policies, and promote growth and innovation in our economy.
Javier continued by saying:
“What we witnessed today is an America that reflects the vision of our founders, a nation where
disagreement is encouraged, but always carried with logic, compassion, and compromise.
Senators Gallego and Moreno exemplified this ideal, showing that principled leaders can
disagree constructively and still find common ground. At a time of historic change, where
numerous challenges lie ahead, they reminded us that collaboration remains our most powerful
tool. Their example gives us reason to believe that our best days still lie ahead, if we dare to act
together as Americans.”
The USHBC remains committed to engaging with policymakers on a bipartisan basis in pursuit
of pro-growth, pro-innovation policies that advance the economic development and prosperity of
all Main Street businesses.
